In my case, I had zero pain during or after surgery.
Doc will place a few numbing eye drops in your eye and all you will feel as mentioned above, is a bit pressure as they place the instrument on your eyeball to hold it in place.
They will tell you to look into the red dot, you will hear some clicking noise and smell burning hair. Takes less than a minute, and it's onto the next eye.
Main part is the recovery and eye drop schedule.
- First day (directly after surgery) you have to keep your eyes closed. They recommend you sleep as it will be easier.
- First week wear those glasses they give you for 24 hours a day.
- Second week wear those glasses when outside the house at all times.
- Follow the eye drops schedule as recommended
